Resembling the silhouette of a military tank from a bird's eye view, this Cartier Tank is a treat to the eyes. Its history dates back to the early 20th century, and ever since then, it has evolved into iterations worn by the likes of Princess Diana and Michelle Obama.

Came into existence in the second half of the 1990s, this Tank Francaise flaunts a playful and edgy shape compared to other Tank watches. The 36.5 mm x 28.15 mm case holds a silver flinque dial bearing iconic Cartier design elements. The dial displays the blue-steel sword hands, rail track minute scale, and Roman numeral hour markers. A subtle date aperture can be seen at six, adding a practical touch, while the Cartier logo sits discreetly at seven. The sophisticated timepiece is forged in stainless steel, while the synthetic cabochon-shaped spinel is set in an 18k yellow gold crown. With 7.45mm in thickness and an integrated bracelet, it pleasantly fits the wrist. This Tank has opted for sharp corners over lugs, unlike its predecessors, for added comfort and a refined look.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
